Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing it or lining with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine the crushed sugar cookies with melted butter until the mix resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of the springform pan and bake for 10-12 minutes.
  3. Beat softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth, then add sour cream, eggs one at a time, vanilla extract, and salt.
  4. Pour the filling over the baked crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. Bake for 50-60 minutes until edges are set and center is slightly jiggly, then turn off the oven and leave the door ajar for 1 hour.
  6. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  7. Remove from pan and top with whipped cream, crushed cookies, or sprinkles before serving.
